Diva's Day Out!

Life has been crazy for me lately (in a good way!) and I have been trying to play catch up. There are so many things I want to update you on, but I don't know where to start. Diva's Day Out seemed as good of a place to start as any... so... here we go!

On May 16th my co-school counselor and I hosted a Diva's Day Out for 4th and 5th grade girls. Diva's Day Out was a big success and girls are still talking about how much fun they had and how awesome it was! Yay!

We scheduled Diva's Day Out on a day where we had a half day and received parental permission for the girls to stay after school from 12:30pm - 3:00pm. We had approximately 50 4th and 5th grade Divas in attendance! (Side note we also required all of the girls in our Girls on the Run and Girls on Track programs to participate... more about GOTR later!)

During Diva's Day Out students participated in activities focusing on fitness, nutrition, self-esteem, relational aggression, and body image.

We made up an acrostic for DIVA and what students would learn by participating in the Diva's Day Out activities.

This post is part of a series on a Diva's Day Out program my co-school counselor and I hosted for 4th and 5th grade girls. During Diva's Day Out students participated in activities focusing on fitness, nutrition, self-esteem, relational aggression, and body image.
